List of Malaysian police officers killed in the line of duty

Add article description


This is a list of police officers from the Royal Malaysia Police who were killed in the line of duty, based on official records from the year 1915 to date. Line of duty deaths refers to any police officer who died while carrying out the duty that they were obligated and/or authorised to carry out. This would include officers who responded to incidents while off-duty as obligated by the Police Force Act 1967, as well as those commuting to and from their place of duty or training.

The Warrior's Square (Malay: Dataran Perwira) is the monument for the Malaysian police officers who were killed in the line of duty. The memorial was set aside on the compound in the RMP Museum.
Outside the Police Museum Centre, are the names of all Malaysian police officers killed in the line of duty since the 1940s mounted on a board on the wall known as Warrior Square (Malay: Dataran Perwira).

Victims' Profile

More information Age, 1910s ...

The ethnic profile of police officers has been traditionally disproportionate compared to the national ethnic profile, with a significantly higher proportion of ethnic Malays, especially in the earlier decades. However, the number of casualties involving ethnic Malay police officers is statistically higher overall due in part to the high mortality rates involving the ethnic Malay community during the Malayan Emergency in the 1950-1970s, and in part to the ethnic composition of the police force.
